Abstract

In a hot dipping process a member such as a copper rod is continuously moved through a heated crucible via a nozzle located at the bottom of the crucible, molten metal such as copper being introduced into the crucible when the rod reaches its melting point and the speed of the rod through the crucible being such e.g. 25-50 cms./min. that it does not deteriorate by melting. As shown in the drawing the rod 2 is passed through a drawing section 3, a shaving cutter 4 which removes the surface oxide and forms a seal with the surface of the rod. The rod is driven through an evacuated passage 5, 6, 8, 25 by rolls 9 and 10 and enters the crucible 26 through nozzle 29. The crucible is heated by coil 36 and when the melting temperature of the rod is reached its speed increases and a servomotor 37 actuated by a sensing means 38 lowers a graphite block 34 into a molten metal reservoir 32 and the molten metal then flows into the crucible. An inert gas is maintained above the molten metal in the crucible and the coated rod is discharged via nozzle 43 and cooling sprays 44 to a shock isolation loop 45 comprising an arm 46 pivoting about a shaft 47, pulleys 48 and counterweight 49. As the rod emerges from the nozzle it enters pulleys 48, the reaction causing arm 46 to rotate and open valve 50 which supplies air to the servo motor 42 which controls the speed of the discharge drive wheels 55 and 56. Specification 992,427 is referred to. 992,426 <PICT:0992426/C6-C7/1>
